[PATCH RESEND] block/genhd: Fix memory leak in error path of __alloc_disk_node()
From: Keita Suzuki
Date: Wed Dec 11 2019 - 04:11:30 EST
'disk->part_tbl' is malloced in disk_expand_part_tbl() and should be
freed before leaving from the error handling cases. However, current code
does not free this, causing a memory leak. Add disk_replace_part_tbl()
before freeing 'disk'.
I have tested this by randomly causing failures to the target code,
and verified on kmemleak that this memory leak does occur.
unreferenced object 0xffff888006dad500 (size 64):
